Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 583
Gu Yuci didn't understand, so: "Then you..." felt inappropriate again, "Father, you are His Highness's real uncle, but you are going against him at this juncture, this..."

Gu Yong pushed away his daughter's hand, gently pulled out his sleeves, and said in a calm tone, "Our Gu family cares too much about the identity of the uncle of the country, so that we are in a dilemma. We want the family to be strong and the emperor to respect us. But in the end, we are the ones who are afraid In terms of cruelty, she is not as good as the Queen Mother, and in terms of step-by-step management, she is not as good as Zhao Ziyi, and she ends up not relying on both sides, neither daring to fight for power, nor trusted by the king."

"I, Gu Yong, have suffered so much for so many years. Have I never suffered any hardships, suffered any crimes, and have I ever complained? If Zhao Ziyi hadn't been staring at me like a tiger, why would I have to return to Beijing in such a hurry..."

He raised his hand to press the center of his brows, with deep heartache and worry in his voice: "He lost his mother when he was young, and was raised in the palm of His Majesty's hands. Now he is a princess, let him destroy the Great Wall himself. As an uncle, if I If you still don't pay attention to it, don't you just help the evildoer and watch him become a puppet?"

Gu Yuci smiled faintly: "Daddy's words are very true."

She thought of what had happened in the Eastern Palace these days, and her eyes suddenly felt a little lost, "If my daughter hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't believe that a man would be so nice to a woman... No, this can't be described as good , is simply obedient... If it is an ordinary man, it will be fine, but he is His Royal Highness, and he is responsible for the family and the country, how can he be trapped in the love of his children?"

Gu Yong frowned, and finally asked the doubts in his heart: "What kind of tricks does that daughter of the Zhao family have?"

Gu Yuci shook his head with a wry smile, and said softly: "To tell the truth, my daughter once suspected that she had some tricks, but now that I live in the East Palace and see her for real, I realize that she didn't do anything. .”

Gu Yong was silent.

Gu Yuci looked at him with earnest eyes: "Daddy, do you think that your daughter has been wronged here? In fact, she is locked up in that remote courtyard, and she is no better than her daughter."

The tone lowered, "As far as my daughter knows, His Highness has been resting in the study these days. If she is really powerful, then His Highness the Crown Prince will never be able to leave her for a moment. How can he just let her go? Reluctant?"

Gu Yong was dubious: "Hearing what you said, His Highness can still hold his own?"

"Yes." Gu Yuci nodded, thinking: "Did you forget that my daughter drank that kind of strong wine back then, and she didn't shake him at all..." She bit her lip and said calmly, "It's all about Jiangshan It's easy to change your nature, it's hard to change your nature, he was originally a ruthless person who loves the country and not the beauties, how could he change overnight because of a woman?"

"Father, don't worry, even if Zhao Ziyi has great ambitions, he may not be able to handle His Highness the Crown Prince." She smiled lightly, showing her brilliance, "Father, trust me, we only need to do one thing now -"

Gu Yong's eyes were fixed: "What's the matter?"

"Wait."

The oil lamp on the table was burned out, Gu Yuci got up, went to the box next to the bed and rummaged a few times, found a wick, switched on the oil lamp and replaced it, took the oil pot and refilled the lamp oil.

The oil lamp was lit again, and the room was a little brighter. Gu Yong waited quietly for her next words.

Gu Yuci looked at his father, and smiled calmly: "We just need to wait. The prince is ignorant and cold-hearted, and he is not someone who can be manipulated by the idle people. As long as the time comes, he will naturally discover the wolf ambition of the Zhao family. At that time, would he still spoil Zhao Xiwei so much?"

She shook her head, smiling coldly, "My daughter thinks it's impossible. Father, you have seen it too. A few days ago, His Majesty was just a little suspicious, so he simply expelled Zhao Xiwei from the main hall..."

Thinking that Zhao Xiwei was going to experience the pain of falling from a height, she couldn't help but feel relieved: "So Daddy, we just have to wait. When the Zhao family's ambitions are exposed, it will be the time when the Zhao family will be destroyed, and it will also be the opportunity for our daughter to stand out."

Gu Yong had never doubted this daughter's mind, and now seeing her calm and undepressed expression, he was also persuaded a little bit.

But thinking of her daughter's embarrassing situation of being nameless, she frowned again: "Then you, under Daddy's nose, Daddy can't just watch you being wronged like this and do nothing."

"No, we don't need to do anything." Gu Yuci shook his head firmly, "We stand still, and things will develop in the direction we want."

"You mean?" Gu Yong leaned slightly, trying to get closer, but the table immediately "creaked" and shook.He frowned again, and had no choice but to move away again.

Where did this table and chairs come from?Tangtang Donggong, can't find a piece of good wood?

Gu Yuci seems to have accepted this situation, just smiled lightly, and tapped lightly with one finger on the table: "Your Majesty suddenly issued an order, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was unwilling, but he did not disobey, but let I live in the East Palace for the time being, doesn't daddy think it's strange?"

Gu Yong frowned: "This is the result of my discussion with him—" As soon as the words came out, it was immediately clear, "You mean, this is the prince's choice after weighing the pros and cons?"

"Yes. With His Majesty's love for His Highness the Crown Prince, if His Highness really resists the order, His Majesty will have nothing to do. But he chose to accept it passively, which shows that in his heart, the seeds of suspicion towards the Zhao family have already been planted. All it takes is an opportunity , it will take root.”

Gu Yong laughed at himself: "Yeah, letting you drink that glass of wine back then also planted the seeds of doubt in his heart..." He sighed deeply, "Up to now, no matter how hard I try, I can no longer gain the slightest bit of trust from him..."

Gu Yuci remained silent.

Isn't this incident also a thorn in her heart?

One step wrong, step by step wrong.

Back then, she was too confident and eager, thinking that this was a childhood sweetheart, and that she was very important in his heart.

The father and daughter fell silent at the same time. After a long time, Gu Yongcai said: "You are right, we have to wait." He took a deep breath, looked up at the dark roof, "For four years in Guizhou, all If you get over it, as long as you can remove all obstacles for him, as long as you can see him rule the world, you will lose another four or 40 years, so why not be afraid..."

Gu Yuci shook his head and smiled: "Father is worrying too much, this time it won't take four years."

Under Gu Yong's suspicious gaze, she dipped in the tea and drew a circle on the table: "This matter started from that cup of old wine, which involved the secret of the queen's death. Next, we have to wait until the truth is revealed." How long?"

Gu Yong's eyes changed slightly.

Gu Yuci looked at the oil lamp like a bean sprout, and said leisurely: "You are the most clear about the queen's condition back then. Now that your majesty is full of doubts, why don't you go to the queen's bedroom and thoroughly clean up what happened back then? offer?"
